Henrietta Bell tried to make all at Market Rasen 12 days ago and rallied on the run-in having been overtaken by the eventual winner. That was an encouraging first run over hurdles but we’re giving another chance to GIVING BACK, who will need to jump better than she did at Exeter but will have learned plenty that day. Miss Brooklyn is a half-sister to two winning jumpers and only ran once in bumpers but the returning Celtic Sally probably needs further.
